Pogo DARCO Pressure Relief Runner
Removable Peg Insole Technology for Targeted Offloading
The Pogo DARCO Runner is a therapeutic offloading shoe designed to help reduce localised plantar pressure in people requiring targeted relief. Unlike standard comfort sneakers, this innovative runner features a removable peg insole system that allows specific areas beneath the foot to be selectively offloaded.
This makes it an excellent option for individuals needing pressure redistribution for:
• Areas of high plantar pressure
• Callused regions
• Localised lesions
• Sensitive forefoot areas
• Small wounds requiring reduced pressure
• Post-procedure or recovery phases
What Makes This Shoe Different?
✔ Removable Peg Insole System
The insole contains removable foam pegs that can be taken out individually to create customised pressure relief beneath specific areas of the foot. This allows for:
• Targeted offloading
• Reduced friction and shear
• Adjustable support based on clinical need
• Customisable comfort without modifying the shoe itself
This feature sets the Pogo DARCO Runner apart from standard orthotic-friendly footwear.
Aircore Insole Technology
The integrated Aircore cushioning system provides:
• Shock absorption
• Energy return
• Enhanced comfort for extended wear
• Stable, supportive base
Designed for Practical Daily Use
Unlike bulky post-op footwear, this runner offers:
• Wide toe box for comfort and stability
• Bungee lace system for secure fit
• Pull-on heel loop
• Stable outsole
• Supportive structure
It blends therapeutic function with everyday wearability.
Who Is It Suitable For?
The Pogo DARCO Runner may be suitable for individuals who:
• Require pressure redistribution under the foot
• Have areas prone to high plantar loading
• Need adjustable offloading options
• Are transitioning from medical footwear
• Want therapeutic functionality in a conventional-looking runner
This product is not a substitute for medical advice. Always consult your healthcare professional for assessment and appropriate offloading recommendations.
What is a removable peg insole and how does it work?
The removable peg insole system allows individual foam plugs to be taken out from specific areas beneath the foot. By removing selected pegs, pressure can be reduced under targeted zones, helping to redistribute load and minimise localised stress. This customisable design allows more precise pressure management compared to standard cushioned footwear.
Who is the Pogo DARCO Runner suitable for?
This runner may be suitable for individuals who require targeted pressure redistribution under the foot, including those with areas prone to high plantar loading or sensitive regions, or those transitioning from therapeutic footwear. Always consult your healthcare professional for personalised advice.
Can the peg insole be adjusted at home?
Yes. The foam pegs can be removed individually to create a customised pressure relief area. Adjustments should be made carefully and, where possible, under the guidance of a podiatrist or healthcare professional to ensure appropriate offloading.
Can I use my own orthotics with this shoe?
The Pogo DARCO Runner is designed with a removable insole system. In some cases, custom orthotics may be used instead of the peg insole; however, this will remove the targeted offloading functionality. If you require both orthotic support and pressure relief, professional guidance is recommended.
What makes this different from a standard comfort runner?
Unlike standard comfort or orthotic-friendly sneakers, the Pogo DARCO Runner includes a removable peg insole system designed for targeted pressure redistribution. This allows for adjustable offloading beneath specific areas of the foot, offering a more tailored approach than cushioning alone.
